Specific Details About The Celebrity Nude Photos Hack & Which Pics Were Released Of Kristen Stewart, Miley Cyrus, Tiger Woods And More

Nude photos of multiple celebrities have yet again surfaced online. In the despicable leak, the “Celeb Jihad” porn site posted fully naked photos of Miley Cyrus, Tiger Woods, and Kristen Stewart, just to name a few.

Calling this a huge invasion of privacy is an understatement. It’s embarrassing for those involved, and honestly just downright cruel. Most of these hacked photos were taken during intimate moments meant to be shared with only those involved, and others… well, really just shouldn’t have been taken in the first place.

According to TMZ, some of the celebs exposed in the hack are poised to take action.

Tiger Woods has already lawyered up. TMZ reports that the photos of Woods and his ex, Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn (which include everything from naked full body shots of both celebrities and close ups of their genitals and even a masturbation video), came from Vonn’s phone. His lawyer has threatened to sue Celeb Jihad if the photos aren’t taken down.

Katharine McPhee, whose leaked photos included a bathing suit shot and Snapchat screenshot of her in a bra, has also hired a lawyer.

It appears that Victoria’s Secret model Stella Maxwell’s phone was also hacked. She’s shown naked in the bathroom with Kristen Stewart (who she’s currently dating) and laying in bed with Miley Cyrus, who she is rumored to have dated in 2015. TMZ reports that Stewart has a lawyer who is also representing Maxwell, who claims that posting the photos is a violation of copyright laws.

Now, we’ve all seen Miley Cyrus naked before — most of the time through photos she’s shared on her own. However, some of the photos included of her in this hack are totally invasive, including photos of her peeing outside. There’s no word yet on whether Cyrus has lawyered up.

This isn’t the first time A-List celebs have fallen victim to hackers.

In 2014, there was a HUGE nude photo leak that targeted over 100 celebrities that became known as ‘The Fappening,’ a crude internet term that combines the word ‘fap’ (which means masturbation, an onomatopoeia that was popularized by the website 4Chan) with ‘happening.’

Jennifer Lawrence, who was affected by that hack, famously called the leak a “sex crime” in an interview with Vanity Fair. “It is a sexual violation. It’s disgusting,” Lawrence said. “Just the fact that somebody can be sexually exploited and violated, and the first thought that crosses somebody’s mind is to make a profit from it. It’s so beyond me.”

The hacker, a 36-year-old man from Pennsylvania, stole the photos through a scheme that tricked celebrities into supplying their email addresses and passwords which he then used to log into their iCloud accounts. In 2016, he was sentenced to 18 months in federal prison.

As tempting as it might be, we urge you to not go looking for the photos — it’s a flagrant violation of privacy and truly unfair for the celebrities involved. Think of how you’d feel if intimate photos of you and your loved ones were put on blast! Remember: when they go low, we go high.
